Comment #13 on issue 28 by [email protected]: out of the box, gVim 7.3.46
for Win32 cannot write swap files on Windows 7
http://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=28
I'm hitting this on a relatively new Windows 7 install: anything that
requires Vim to use temporary files (diff, shell commands) results in
undesirable behaviour (E483 Can't get temp file name, or a diff that fails
to highlight differences).
I've tried
* setting my environment variables
* including let $TMP="c:\temp" & let $TEMP="c:\temp" in my _vimrc
* disabling UAC & rebooting
* setting broad access permissions on the Vim install folder
* changing the 'Start in' directory of the Vim shortcut icon (to My
Documents)
* including set directory=.,$TMP,$TEMP in my _vimrc
All to no avail I'm afraid. Not sure how else I can tell Vim to locate the
temp files.
